I said no, we're 52 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:14,240 going to be discussing psychic phenomena. We'll be talking about flying saucers. Oh, 53 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:19,240 he said then, you know, this is not the Edwards that I mean. I thought you were going to have 54 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:25,240 to follow me, the great commentator. I said, look, this is the man that you're thinking 55 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:30,240 of, Frank Edwards. Now, I said, Frank Edwards writes for Fate magazine. Oh, he said, please, 56 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:35,480 that's not the Edwards. In other words, what I'm trying to tell you, Frank, is that this 57 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:42,480 man, Earl Lottman, has extremely interested in meeting you and listened to you for years, 58 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:51,480 but when he said that one possibly believes in some of the flying saucer stars and some 59 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:58,480 of these stars about the mediums and the spiritualists and all like that, something happened. In 60 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:03,720 other words, the man figured it's something, something, same man. 61 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:08,720 I was wondering, would you like to comment on that? Yes, I think this is an understandable 62 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:15,720 attitude on his part, because he probably contains me with another Edwards who is on 63 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:22,480 another network, Doug Edwards, a very fine commentator. And a lot of people do that. 64 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:29,480 There's Doug Edwards and then there's me with Doug Edwards. I think I was going to say 65 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,480 that understand. Well, I'm going to give you a few minutes to start off. This is the Frank 66 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:40,480 Edwards, the man that you've admired for years. And why I feel that there must, that evidently 67 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:46,480 Frank Edwards has gone soft or something because he believes in the big saucers is amazing. 68 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,480 I believe in some of the things, certainly not all of them. And just because you sit around 69 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:57,480 here many nights and you figure that for anybody that comes on the show and talks about the 70 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:02,480 experience and aspect projection or an experience of seeing the saucer or something like that, 71 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:07,480 automatically you label them all coax. And I presume that actually you're labeling Frank 72 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:13,480 Edwards as a coax. Oh, what do you mean? I haven't heard a word. You know, I am. You 73 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:19,480 know, I'm excited and I can see the thoughts of the guys with science minds. But I am not 74 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:26,480 just a huge different network. And Frank Edwards was a news commentator sponsored by the AFL 75 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:34,480 and CIO or individually one of the two. Right. Frank Edwards, what I would classify as 76 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:41,480 further interpretive analysis of the news, which was brilliant. I mean, I'm trying to make 77 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:47,480 up to you right at the beginning. I really felt that way. When represented a viewpoint 78 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:53,480 that I thought was the right viewpoint that was subjective, it was different than any other 79 00:04:53,480 --> 00:05:01,480 brains coming down on the air. It was objective and yet it was subjective from a human point of 80 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:09,480 point. Now, there with my relation and excitement, I cannot reconcile Frank for an animal's 81 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:16,480 interpretive power to give a news that is as great as yours, but something that is so 82 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:26,480 unreal for me, something that represents in most cases such utter nonsense, I just don't 83 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:34,480 reconcile with completely. Well, what I'm really asking you, I'm sure is you're really 84 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:41,480 putting the question to me, why do I assist in regarding the so called sources of realities? 85 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:48,480 Well, I do this because during the 12 years or so that I have been interested in things, 86 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:53,480 I've had the reason to change my mind about it. At first I thought they were some development 87 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,480 of ours. I'm sure there were a lot of other people in these countries that we thought that, 88 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:02,480 but as the years went by and funds happened, I realized that there's many other people 89 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,480 that some things, but most of them are nothing more than conventional objects from under 90 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:11,480 unusual circumstances and misconstrued by people who do not recognize them for what they are. 91 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:16,480 Well, there is a small percentage of these things that simply cannot be explained away as 92 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,480 conventional objects. And the effort certainly doesn't regard them as conventional objects 93 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:24,480 because it has a qualification if you'd order to shrink them down. 94 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:30,480 You don't shrink down hallucinations and you don't shrink down atmospheric discoloration, 95 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:35,480 you don't shrink down temperature inversions. These things have to be real and solid. 96 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,480 I belong to an organization called NYCAP, do you know about it Al? Yes. 97 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:45,480 This is headed by Admiral Hilling Cutter who for a long time, had a central intelligence. 98 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:52,480 Hilling Cutter always in a position to know what was going on. We also have an organization 99 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,480 that came with the director, the chairman of the board, was Admiral Hilling Cutter, 100 00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,480 and they just heard this thing before. Right? And the life of NYCAP is controlled. 101 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:05,480 Oh yes, T. R. Firstman was Admiral Farney, the father of our guided missile and the man 102 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:11,480 who coined the term guided missile. And he liked the rest of us on the board and he said so 103 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:16,480 publicly in his opening statement, I was convinced that things came from somewhere in space 104 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:21,480 in the space for every hour atmosphere and had been for quite a while and that there were 105 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:26,480 works of intelligent beings and were certainly not subject to human control. 106 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,480 And Admiral Farney said this, not exactly in those works but that's as near as I can remember. 107 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:35,480 That was the gist of it. So now the chairman of the board is Admiral Hilling Cutter, 108 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:40,480 the former head of central intelligence. We also have on the board Colonel Farney who headed 109 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:45,480 one of the Air Force's social research projects. I certainly was in a position to know what 110 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,480 was known as far as our official research program is concerned. 111 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:54,480 So many things have happened in this field. If you are close to it and have been able to 112 00:07:54,480 --> 00:08:00,480 get at some of the facts in it around the carefully laid censorship signs and the final 113 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:07,480 reception and compunition of the existing and bad reporting tools and what do you want to do with that? 114 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:12,480 I'm saying that there is something substantial there although we may not know what it is or 115 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,480 where it comes from and we certainly do not control it. For that reason I don't know what 116 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:21,480 the things are and I've never seen one. But I have many friends who are very competent people 117 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:27,480 and certainly credible. I know a lot of people who are not friends with me but I know them. 118 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:32,480 I regard their opinion very highly. One of them is Dr. James Bugg but the kind of the 119 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:37,480 astronomy division at the University of Maryland who has seen the things and have had a really good look at them 120 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:42,480 and talked about his standing and airline product and so forth. They have certainly seen something 121 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:47,480 and it's something over which we are in no control. But what of a better name we call them flying saucers? 122 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:53,480 Well I agree with the Air Force that flying saucers do not exist but unidentified flying objects do exist. 123 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:57,480 I don't know what they are going to say but that's why I've been interested in them because in my opinion 124 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:02,480 as a newsman, let's get back to what you've said to me, but my opinion as a newsman, 125 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:07,480 and in my judgment as a newsman at 36 years, experience in broadcasting around, 126 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:12,480 I think that this could be one of the biggest news stories of all time. 127 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:17,480 But if we can get the facts out before the public can be, the reality of these things 128 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:22,480 and their origin as some of us suspect they are going to be, can be confirmed. 129 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:29,480 I think it's a bit early though, I think it's a bit early now, but I think it's about the origin of these things. 130 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:30,480 I think. 131 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:31,480 I don't have anything? 132 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:39,480 Yes, I've been with Dr. Herman Over and with Admiral Farni and others. 133 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:48,480 But I think things are probably rather planetary and that I have no idea where they come from 134 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:54,480 but I am confident in view of all the evidence that has kind of left about them 135 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:59,480 that they certainly do not originate on the earth, that's where they come from, that's why I don't know. 136 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:05,480 I can see there in my perception, things are unidentified flying objects. 137 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,480 I can understand that my point is that I have an interest also. 138 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:16,480 I don't believe in an object having a certain sense, something that's probably the interest that's now in it and it's necessary. 139 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:23,480 While I'm a victim to this and there's no significant ignorance in these things, I think it's a kind of feminine 140 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:32,480 and I don't know why that word, new background, I'm always aggrieved at your acceptance and your alliance. 141 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,480 I'm afraid of that way. 142 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,480 I don't even feel any obstacle and mystical. 143 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:43,480 Science, Frank, is the eventual answer to most of the claims of life. 144 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,480 Here it has not yet explained everything. 145 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,480 Here we have unidentified flying objects, flying objects. 146 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:58,480 Now you say we're filming evidence from heaven and we are led to believe that things represent some form of human intelligence from outside the planet. 147 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:04,480 We're not going to be the same far right, but some form of intelligence anyway, and human or otherwise. 148 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:10,480 I have several questions which are also not one that's not evident from any credible source too. 149 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:20,480 Can you explain at the same time Frank, some of the associations of those and those that I characterize in the texts in my book, I definitely do, 150 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:32,480 those who believe in forms of mysticism and of cultism which have nothing and shouldn't have anything to do with research and what the process is when I'm not explaining objects. 151 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,480 What associations trouble me? 152 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:40,480 What you do is a large favor with Aladdin and all that you're anxious to get closer to our guests, 153 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,480 but you're closer to prodding into the microphone. 154 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,480 It makes it rather difficult for our engineers to keep a steady pace. 155 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:55,480 I'm glad you brought science into this because this puts a unique frame of reference where I think I might be able to shed a little light on my own attitude toward the matter. 156 00:11:55,480 --> 00:12:08,480 All things have been photographed and they have been seen and they have been tracked by radar and the government has issued a book on how to recognize them when you see them on a radar screen, 157 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:15,480 how they performed when they came over the city of Washington in numbers on the night of July 19th and 20th of 1952. 158 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:23,480 About three nights later they were back again, but then on the night of August 13th, 1952, according to this government book which I have in my possession, 159 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:34,480 there were 68 of them over Washington at one time and the book was issued for the guidance of control tower and men and other men how to recognize the things and how to know what you were seeing when you saw them. 160 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:43,480 Now to those who haven't seen them, let me say that these things are fully as real as cosmic rays. 161 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:48,480 I've never seen one of them either, but I have seen the tracks that they made when they were photographed. 162 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,480 I've also seen pictures of these things when they had been photographed. 163 00:12:52,480 --> 00:13:01,480 So they are at least as real as cosmic rays having for that reason they constitute another thing that we know exists but which we certainly do not fully understand. 164 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:07,480 People sometimes ask me, why do you believe the flying saucers? 165 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,480 Well, that's a rather broad question. 166 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,480 What do they mean by believing them? 167 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,480 I think that it's like this. 168 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:15,480 I feel this way about it. 169 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:19,480 I feel that this is like the two ghosts. 170 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:26,480 One is sitting on the cemetery wall one night watching the airplanes go over and one ghost said to the other, say, do you believe in people? 171 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:34,480 And the problem goes ahead and been training around themselves but there was a reason to believe that maybe something was out there. 172 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,480 I'm not being smart actually about this Al. 173 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,480 I'm not trying to sell anybody on flying saucers. 174 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,480 I don't care where anybody believes it, says things that exist or not. 175 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:43,480 I believe it. 176 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:44,480 The government believes it. 177 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:45,480 The Air Force believes it. 178 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,480 A lot of scientists believe it. 179 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,480 If a lot of people don't, they want to believe it. 180 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:50,480 It's all right with me. 181 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:56,480 As I said a while ago, I'm interested in it because I think, but if my suspicions, I have nothing more than suspicions. 182 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:57,480 I don't know where they come from. 183 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:04,480 But if my suspicions are true, then the story of these unidentified flying objects certainly constitutes a major news story. 184 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:12,480 Well, they would constitute a major news story if there were some evidence to back up your suspicions. 185 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:13,480 Now, I cannot... 186 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,480 What do you consider evidence? 187 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,480 Oh, I can tell you what I consider evidence, Frank. 188 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,480 And I've stated this several times. 189 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,480 I want a credible source. 190 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:30,480 And by a credible source, I will accept any scientific body who are objective. 191 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,480 And I'm sorry to say this, but this is all a price to me. 192 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:39,480 And it's not an income newsman because both the main gauges are full of wishful dramatic. 193 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,480 They're part of their occupational pursuit. 194 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,480 I'm not angry at them, but it is so. 195 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,480 I want a credible scientific source. 196 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:56,480 A university, somebody, who can be accepted as an objective person and a person with a background in their knowledge. 197 00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:02,480 But tell me, there is some form of scientific evidence, and here we will give it to you. 198 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:08,480 That's an important planetary source, and class is unsighted over the earth. 199 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:12,480 Thank you. I'm glad you brought that up because I'll be able to answer your question. 200 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:24,480 On about seven o'clock on the morning of June the 30th, 1908, there was a great ball of fire that came in over the Yemisee River in Siberia. 201 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,480 The thing exploded. 202 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,480 It was a tremendous blast. It was so great that it was recorded all around the world. 203 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,480 They realized that it was some great explosion, some tremendous shock, 204 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:39,480 but it could not have been an earthquake because it possessed one of the characteristics of an earthquake. 205 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:45,480 And the universities and the various laboratories and observatories that recorded this 206 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:51,480 realized that it was a shock, and they were able to locate it reasonably well, but they were not able to identify it. 207 00:15:51,480 --> 00:16:00,480 Well, in 1908, there was very little understanding of atomic reactions. 208 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,480 This is well known. 209 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:09,480 So it was night there because of World War I and the great disruption that took place in Russia. 210 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:19,480 So in 1927, before a scientific body got to the scene of the so-called Tungesta meteorite, 211 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:24,480 they all assumed, for a lot of anything else to assume, that this was a great meteorite that had struck there. 212 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,480 They discovered a very strange thing about it. 213 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:33,480 But for many miles around the scene of this blast, the trees were all swept down flat. 214 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,480 They were brushed down against the ground. 215 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,480 They were charred on the side facing the center of the blast. 216 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,480 In my book, if I may be permitted to stick in a commercial here, 217 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,480 my book of strands is in science. 218 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:50,480 There is an article on this covering it in considerable detail. 219 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:56,480 And the blast was a very tremendous explosion of some sort. 220 00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:02,480 If it had been a meteorite, there would have been some sort of meteoritic crater there. 221 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,480 But there was no crater. 222 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:09,480 There was only this great mass of charred forest spreading for miles away from the center of the blast. 223 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,480 This puzzled the scientists who went there. 224 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,480 But they had nothing. 225 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:19,480 They had no yardstick by which to figure what this thing could have been. 226 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:24,480 When we exploded our atomic bomb at Hiroshima, 227 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,480 actually the Russians were interested in it, 228 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:31,480 so they sent a party over there and a member of the party was Dr. Alexander Kuzinsel. 229 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:35,480 That was also a member of the various scientific expeditions which had been 230 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:40,480 for the same as the Tungusco meteorite as it was known, as full as the Death Wing Records. 231 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,480 When he was at Hiroshima, he noticed a peculiarity. 232 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:49,480 Right under the so-called cone of the blast, directly under the point where the bomb had exploded, 233 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,480 the tops of the trees were snapped off and they hung down. 234 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,480 And the limbs on the trees were stripped and hanging down. 235 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,480 They stripped down the trunk. 236 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,480 This was a very odd looking thing. 237 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:04,480 And out away from the center of the blast, the trees were flattened out in the brice to where it was charred 238 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,480 on the side toward the blast itself. 239 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:11,480 Suddenly it dawned on him that the only other place that he'd ever seen a thing like this 240 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:15,480 was at the Tungusco meteorite. 241 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:19,480 So he and his colleagues, again comparing notes, and they went back 242 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:23,480 and they got the Soviet government to organize another expedition, actually to organize fun. 243 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:28,480 They went up there with radiation gear and they discovered that they could trace out a cone of radiation 244 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,480 directly under, directly in the center of the blast. 245 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,480 Just as they added Hiroshima and Nagasaki. 246 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,480 Now they had all the radiation characteristics of this. 247 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,480 They also found some bits of alloyed metal around the edge of the cone of the blast. 248 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:45,480 And then when they went back and examined the eyewitness reports, 249 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,480 they found that there was the typical mushroom cloud. 250 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:52,480 Now that the people who went into this area died of a strange malady. 251 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,480 They went back and they were able to exclude many of them. 252 00:18:55,480 --> 00:19:01,480 And they all showed signs of excessive radioactivity in the bones. 253 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:06,480 So obviously there had been some sort of a powerful radioactive performance there. 254 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:11,480 And after the free and Russian expedition had been up there, 255 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:15,480 I will find only front page of the New York Times for October the 4th. 256 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:19,480 A story there which is the third one that has been published on this. 257 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:24,480 But this was an atomic power spaceship that weighed many thousands of tons. 258 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:29,480 That for some reason it was trying to make an emergency landing when it blew up. 259 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:34,480 But now the 21 and 22 times miles are brought out what is known in the books. 260 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:41,480 As a term just a meteorite, but actually it was a spaceship and atomic power went at that. 261 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:42,480 Ben? 262 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:48,480 I read the news story in the Times that they were quoting Russian scientists. 263 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,480 This was at the Times version. 264 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,480 They were quoting Russian scientists. 265 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,480 But one of the possible explanations that... 266 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,480 Also we have two. 267 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:06,480 One we go, it might have been a spaceship, the other one might have been some radioacted explosion of unknown origin from outside the Earth. 268 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,480 Let me pursue that. 269 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,480 Also there was something very interesting in the article two. 270 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:19,480 Another Russian scientist about this theory that the two moons of Mars are really artificial satellites 271 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:28,480 put up the orbit thousands of years ago by people who had lived on Mars and tried to escape. 272 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,480 Valerie sent me an old pair a moment ago. 273 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:40,480 And I think we saw the Times reported it saying that the Russians said it may have been a spaceship. 274 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:41,480 Yes. 275 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:56,480 In his group reported to the Russian Academy of Science that all the evidence was conclusive, but it was a spaceship and that they found these alloyed metals. 276 00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:02,480 So the report, what in the Times said that the implication was that they were assuming that it was a spaceship? 277 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,480 They didn't say it was a spaceship. 278 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,480 Let me explain what happened on this thing. 279 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:16,480 This was a different explanation and the ones who are quoted in the Times are the fellows who denied that Kuzentsev and his group reported that it was a spaceship. 280 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,480 Academy of Science meeting over there. 281 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:26,480 These fellows denied that such that it was, but when they went over there and made their own investigation, they changed their tune completely. 282 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:27,480 They say, well, maybe it was. 283 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,480 This is quite a change on their part. 284 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,480 It's also supposed to be... 285 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,480 The Times said it was not mentioned in that Times article. 286 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,480 This was the first... 287 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:36,480 This was the first... 288 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:37,480 This was the first... 289 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,480 This was supposed to be a certain amount of residual radioactivity in the area. 290 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:47,480 This was perceived by what would have been ground zero at a nuclear blast and then... 291 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,480 It was a cone of the blast directly under the blast. 292 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,480 So don't misunderstand me. 293 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:57,480 I'm not trying to feed or combine any scientific information because I showed... 294 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,480 You would like to know the sum of... 295 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:00,480 I have to rely. 296 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:01,480 Right. 297 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:07,480 Now you've all picked certain things, but I use the word something because that's all it means to me. 298 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:11,480 Here are a group of Russian scientists and their accomplishments incidentally or something... 299 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,480 What you might not... 300 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,480 ...avay or avoid. 301 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:16,480 They're indeed accomplished. 302 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:21,480 However, there's still, it seems to me, a theory... 303 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:25,480 ...expounded by some Russian scientists which have some validity and one must look up. 304 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,480 But nothing more at the moment than a theory. 305 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:34,480 Now, speaking of a layperson and one who is interested in the news events of the day... 306 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:39,480 I have one more question to pursue from a scientific viewpoint. 307 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:47,480 Here is a subject of unbelievable, well important, isn't even a proper word. 308 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:48,480 I can't think of one. 309 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:49,480 The impact is enormous. 310 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,480 I can think of nothing in my lifetime. 311 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:58,480 But if it were so, if it were to nothing in my lifetime of greater importance or drama... 312 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:04,480 ...than the possibility of life in other planets and advanced life or some form of intelligence anyway... 313 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,480 ...sending crap to the surface. 314 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:13,480 Nothing, it seems to me, including the rumors which went through which credit boys buy. 315 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:18,480 Now, following that in agreement with me, I now ask you one more question. 316 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:24,480 Are there any scientists of repeat or any scientists of repeat? 317 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:31,480 For today, the uriology has taken this matter seriously and are engaging and valid. 318 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,480 I'd better use a word credible research. 319 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,480 Well, let me answer you in two sections. 320 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:42,480 One, do you consider Dr. Berman over as a scientist of repeat? 321 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:49,480 I mean, I've got to have your answers so that I'll know what you're talking about. 322 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:56,480 The reason I smiled was never in front of Dr. Obert, but it was an embarrassment at my own ignorance. 323 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:57,480 I don't know the matter. 324 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:02,480 Dr. Berman Obert is the father of modern rocket science. 325 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,480 He lived in Germany for many years. 326 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:08,480 He was the man who organized rocket research in Germany. 327 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:13,480 He lived in Germany and organized the rocket-summed-build-hitners rockets for him. 328 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:19,480 He has written many books on space travel and I'd say that next to Sikopsky, the Russian, 329 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:25,480 he is probably one of the total outstanding women the Russians have died of. 330 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,480 That's two years ago. 331 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:32,480 But Obert has just gone back to Germany after five years at Redstone Arsenal down here. 332 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:38,480 Obert headed a German government research in this, which was actually a cooperative effort 333 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:44,480 between Scandinavian countries and the Holland and Belgium and West Germany, 334 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:50,480 looking into these so-called flying software UFOs. 335 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,480 1954, when he concluded this program for him, 336 00:24:53,480 --> 00:25:00,480 he held a press conference at which he said that his opinion of himself and his colleagues 337 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:05,480 and their own opinions were inter-pandestrian origin 338 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:09,480 that they probably did not originate in our galaxy 339 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,480 and that they were operated by intelligent beings of a very high order 340 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,480 and were probably propelled by distorting the gravitational field. 341 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:23,480 But just completed that in February of 1948 when he went back to Germany. 342 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:33,480 I don't think it would be unfair to say that the opinion of the scientific community about Dr. Hans Obert 343 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:40,480 is much the same as what was the opinion told about Nikolai Keshler, 344 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:47,480 because he was a man of undoubted genius who in the later years of his life entertained some strange ideas. 345 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,480 Of course, anyone who flies in the face of conventions, entertainings, strange ideas, 346 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,480 and that was true of Einstein, it was also true of... 347 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,480 My wording was supposed to be the lies. 348 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,480 Yeah, sure. 349 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:07,480 But I had known that we're going to ask this question because I could have brought a little bit later, 350 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:12,480 which I cannot use publicly, but which I mentioned in one of my books. 351 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:17,480 I shot it to Willy Lay one night on a program called Author, Reaches the Credit to TV Show 352 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:18,480 and we were... 353 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,480 Tingle and I were on every one of the major Tingle's books 354 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:26,480 and the critic was Willy Lay, who was certainly a very eminent man of his field. 355 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:31,480 And we were to be on a 20-station TV network 356 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:36,480 and without any warning, whatever, we were cut down to one station that night. 357 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,480 And maybe it was just half an hour past, but that's beside the point. 358 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,480 What happened was that I was able to show Mr. Lay in the middle of the program 359 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:48,480 a letter signed by a group of eminent government physicists 360 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,480 who are engaged in work for the United States government. 361 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:57,480 And they said in this letter that after evaluating the evidence and materials submitted to them 362 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:02,480 over a period of years, they were convinced that things, objects were operated by intelligent beings 363 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,480 in a very high order and were not correctly noted. 364 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,480 And I had the letter. 365 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,480 Let me interrupt here for a moment to take care of some business 366 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,480 and then we'll be back with our guests in a few minutes. 367 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,480 I had a question, Frank, was not answered. 368 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,480 Well, in a way, just a moment I want to introduce you to guests. 369 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,480 I'll give you a channel, you know. 370 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:31,480 Also, I think at this time, I should remind our listeners that tomorrow night, 371 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,480 or rather tonight, I'm sure we're in the sun already, 372 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:39,480 tonight at 8.15 p.m. at the Philosophical Research Center 373 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,480 and that's located at 211 West 57th Street in New York. 374 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,480 I'll repeat that in a moment if you want to get a pencil and paper to make a note of it. 375 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:52,480 Valerie Landier will deliver a lecture on the subject of the untold secrets of the flying saucers. 376 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:57,480 It's ideal for a holiday gift to get some of these and send them to the... 377 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:03,480 And outside of the question of flying saucers from other planets, 378 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:08,480 I was very...plans to find that in your new book, Stranger Than Science, 379 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:14,480 you have a record of a man who almost, let me say this, was 1959 380 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:19,480 and that was somewhere about 1880s or so, and John Keely, 381 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:26,480 had a built-in machine, a device which achieved physical levitation 382 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,480 and it was quite some time before the turn of the 20th century. 383 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,480 Could you tell us something about John Keely? 384 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,480 John Warrell Keely was a very unusual fellow. 385 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:41,480 He was a musician and a magician and he was an inventor 386 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:47,480 and he seemed to be a very conscientious man in the national psychopedia of his day. 387 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:51,480 He gave him a very fine biographical sketch in there 388 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,480 and if John Keely was a crook, no one was ever able to prove it 389 00:28:55,480 --> 00:29:00,480 and certainly some of the best scientists of his time tried to expose him 390 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:04,480 and he gave some of them his cooperation with the consent of the stockholders 391 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:09,480 but at least one of them who was sent by the stockholders to examine Keely's invention 392 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,480 said that he did not fully understand it 393 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:18,480 but he had seen enough to convince him that Keely's invention was everything that he said it was. 394 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:27,480 What Keely did was to build a machine and he called it a long technical, compound technical name 395 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,480 which didn't mean much to me and possibly didn't mean much to him 396 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:34,480 because I have a feeling that perhaps Keely didn't understand what he had either 397 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,480 but this machine was one that had tremendous power 398 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:44,480 and he demonstrated it many times from stockholders into various other groups 399 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:49,480 and it drove, for one thing, it drove a lead ball through an oak plank 400 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:53,480 a foot-to-feet which nothing else in his time could do 401 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,480 it bent stung rails as though they were putty 402 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:01,480 and there was not another machine that existed in that day that could do that 403 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:08,480 and it performed various things but it never got to the point under his control or development 404 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,480 where he felt like it could be safely be put out on the market 405 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:17,480 or put to practical use although the demonstrations were always very impressive 406 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:23,480 after Keely died, we found a huge tank of compressed air 407 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:29,480 and when Keely died, we found a huge tank of compressed air in the basement of his own 408 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,480 but there was nothing new about that really except to the reporters 409 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:39,480 because Keely had shown that stockholders and several hundred people the tank of air 410 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:44,480 was connected with the machine only by some relatively thin and wheat brass pipe 411 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,480 so it couldn't have carried very much pressure 412 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:50,480 certainly couldn't have caused the machine to do what the machine obviously did 413 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,480 time after time in the presence of many witnesses 414 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,480 Well you will have a thin outlet to a huge tank of compressed air 415 00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,480 you can build up tremendous pressure on that limited area 416 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:06,480 Well I'm quoting these men who investigated for the I-R-H stockholders after Keely's death 417 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:13,480 and they said that it was not possible for him to have used the air in this cylinder 418 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:18,480 at enough pressure to have made the machine perform as it did 419 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:25,480 Well maybe Keely was an advance of the knowledge of hydrologists at this time 420 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,480 I don't think there was any knowledge involved 421 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,480 Well I would compress that 422 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:36,480 Oh I agree but what did he explain that his machines were anti-gravity? 423 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:42,480 No, he according to the explanation that I found in my research on Keely 424 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:47,480 probably hinted that this was some sort of an atomic disintegration process 425 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:52,480 but he called it by a vacual pressure 426 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,480 but already do you know what they named for it? 427 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:55,480 I forgot his name 428 00:31:55,480 --> 00:32:00,480 I confess that I had done a good deal of research into Keely's work 429 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,480 but this was a couple of years ago 430 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,480 and I haven't had contact with the work 431 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:10,480 there was one volume of work in just Keely's work 432 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,480 that I was supposed to get 433 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:17,480 and there was a very fascinating woman by the name of Natasha Rundover 434 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:22,480 who actually came to that old bookshop in New York City some time ago 435 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:27,480 that book had a good deal of mathematical analysis of the Keely motor 436 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:33,480 and Mr. Keely was not quite as illiterate or ignorant as his attackers claim he was 437 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:38,480 and in effect what he was doing was using sympathetic vibrations 438 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:43,480 focused to the center of a sphere to achieve certain effects 439 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:50,480 and then being a musician and having done a good deal of experiments in rib vibrations 440 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:54,480 he apparently hit on something that we're just beginning to hit again 441 00:32:54,480 --> 00:33:01,480 and the proof of it of course was that he did accomplish these very strange results in his laboratories 442 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:08,480 which types of compressed air in the basement could never accomplish no matter how efficiently they were built 443 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:12,480 and as I recall now I examined one of Keely's machines 444 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:17,480 which is in the city of Philadelphia and it is a new work 445 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:23,480 a marvelous example, it's an advanced case so I don't know 446 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:28,480 a marvelous example of the tourmakers art in any case 447 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:36,480 and I do recall too that he had this tremendously heavy machinery in his laboratories 448 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,480 but occasionally it was found in another part of the room 449 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,480 and there was no physical means of transporting that weight around 450 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,480 and of course no one really knows how Keely thought this stuff shifted around 451 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,480 from one part of the building to the other 452 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:54,480 but it was a very fascinating story, I spent quite a bit of time in research on it 453 00:33:54,480 --> 00:34:02,480 I spent several years ago and I distinctly remember that he didn't seem to be able to describe 454 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:10,480 the operations of the machine in terms of the scientific knowledge of his time 455 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:16,480 because he seemed to be far ahead of his time but he did the best he could with this long-winded name for it 456 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:23,480 but he did say that there was some sort of what he called an atomic disintegration process 457 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:30,480 but he said he thought it needed a great deal more study and research before it could be safely put to use 458 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:36,480 I remember one other thing that Keely did which sounds very amusing, it sounds almost ridiculous 459 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:44,480 but if you realize that the presence of atomic cars operating because a couple of little particles 460 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:49,480 start a spark that keeps sparking more and more sparks through the whole elusive stuff 461 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:55,480 but the thing isn't quite as strange as it sounds but Keely used to pick up his lorry 462 00:34:55,480 --> 00:35:03,480 and if I just played one note on the lorry and this great big metallic sphere would suddenly start to spin 463 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:10,480 and it would go on spinning for days just as a result of this one sound that he produced on his lorry 464 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:17,480 I was wondering Frank, I've given us some ideas about Keely 465 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:22,480 I was wondering if you had any opinions about Otis Tent Car, does that name ring the bell with you? 466 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:27,480 Well I remember that when I was on the program here before John's 20 years ago 467 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:32,480 I got a telegram from Mr. Otis Car who was named I believe in Baltimore 468 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:37,480 I wanted me to come up there and see an anti-gravity machine that he said he had built 469 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:41,480 I couldn't go and I really don't know anything about him other than that 470 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:45,480 other than a few little stories that I've seen about him on the news wires from time to time 471 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:50,480 Personally I don't know anything about him except that I do know that he's made these claims from time to time 472 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:56,480 and that there have been some skeptics and felt that perhaps some is overstating his case 473 00:35:56,480 --> 00:36:03,480 I went out to Oklahoma City for the launching and naturally they didn't even take it out of the warehouse 474 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:07,480 for some reason, the mercury leak or something they claimed later 475 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:11,480 and that was just about the end of it at least temporarily anyway 476 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:15,480 but we have just some sort of a machine that holds a beautiful thing 477 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,480 I'll bring you a six foot prototype model 478 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,480 I'm not talking about the anti-gravity machine 479 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,480 I'm not talking about the OTC circuit or a craft 480 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:31,480 the prototype model of the craft that he had hoped to be able to go to the military 481 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,480 I didn't do it in the same time as you did, you know what you did 482 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,480 and that's why we went out, we went out to Oklahoma City 483 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,480 about, we were there for April 19th 484 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,480 that was the day it was to be launched 485 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,480 it's a beautiful contraption 486 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,480 and it looks great 487 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,480 I'm not a scientist, I'm not mechanically inclined 488 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:56,480 so I couldn't tell you whether there's a possibility that it could go up or not 489 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,480 I do know this 490 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,480 which may have been window dressing 491 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,480 but it seems that they had a little difficulty with the 492 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:09,480 what is the department that has to do with aviation, not FCC 493 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,480 CAB is that it? 494 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,480 well, the office 495 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:17,480 probably one of the ones you'll see in the industry, even the others 496 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,480 one of the offices in Oklahoma City 497 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:26,480 one of the officials of the department that would handle these things 498 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,480 made them purchase a winch 499 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:34,480 and 400 feet of nylon cord 500 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,480 before they could launch this 501 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,480 so it wouldn't get out of control 502 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:42,480 because I gather from this 503 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:46,480 that the government thought that there's a possibility that this would go up higher 504 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,480 they would lose control over 505 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:53,480 and it may cause an accident in some other part of the country 506 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,480 John, I'd say you're a very conventional person 507 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,480 that's a customary move in these cases 508 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,480 I see the 400 feet of nylon cord 509 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:03,480 yes, I mean, and you saw it 510 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,480 it was outside the room 511 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,480 Ben, I'll even show you if you're standing next to it 512 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,480 I'll show you the photograph 513 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,480 so if you're asking me whether you want him with a line on it 514 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:15,480 I would eventually say there was 515 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,480 but I'm not in a position, I didn't actually measure 516 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,480 but there was a winch there 517 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,480 and this was a big piece of big hunk of iron 518 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,480 and the winch should have been above it 519 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:31,480 they have a government there for him to buy this winch 520 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:38,480 as I imagine if Otis T. Carr announced that he was going to go through his plans on December 7th 521 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,480 the flight of the moon 522 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,480 I imagine also the government would ask him to file a flight plan 523 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,480 but that doesn't mean they'd seriously expect him to do it 524 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:48,480 they just expect him to go through the regular 525 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:52,480 and the regular morale that are attendant upon all these things 526 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,480 we don't want to spend a lot of time on that 527 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,480 I was taking a statement here about this 528 00:38:56,480 --> 00:39:00,480 I just mentioned about the flight plan for the moon 529 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,480 I had a briefing down in Washington the other day 530 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,480 about top scientists 531 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,480 and this devotion, a lot of time to studying 532 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,480 Russian scientific developments 533 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,480 and he works closely with Scandinavian 534 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,480 and other intelligence show that's over there 535 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:20,480 but points out that at the time the Russians hit the moon 536 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,480 the Ivan's problem was relatively simple 537 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,480 to hit the moon you're much simpler than as you know 538 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,480 actually orbiting the thing or raising it 539 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,480 and making pictures of transmitting them by television 540 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,480 but exactly the right thing in the right time and back 541 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,480 as I said since the Russians did not have 542 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:42,480 a fantastically good equipment 543 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,480 at the time they hit the moon obviously 544 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,480 this means that they would have had to have built 545 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:53,480 all this wonderfully intricate and responsive 546 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,480 from here between the time they hit the moon 547 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,480 and the time they sent an outfit around it 548 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,480 the photograph that developed the film 549 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,480 that sent back the pictures by television 550 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:08,480 and this has led any scientist to suspect 551 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:12,480 so this man told me that the Russians actually sacrificed a man 552 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:19,480 in this thing in order to have some responsive method 553 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:23,480 of developing the film, of aiming the thing 554 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,480 and sending back the pictures at exactly the time they wanted 555 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,480 I know that they have tried on three occasions 556 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,480 to send the space just up and back 557 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:36,480 and we know that they got him back twice 558 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,480 what happened to the photograph we don't know 559 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,480 and I had a phone call 560 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:41,480 how do we know? 561 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,480 intelligence would pull me up 562 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,480 I had a phone call during the past week 563 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,480 during the daytime I was in my office there 564 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:50,480 and somebody called me up 565 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:51,480 they gave me their name 566 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:52,480 to be very honest with you 567 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:54,480 I didn't even make a notation of the name 568 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,480 but the name didn't mean a thing to me 569 00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,480 I was not impressed maybe the man 570 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:02,480 was somebody well known in his particular profession 571 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,480 and I must admit this 572 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:07,480 that the man sounded like a very intelligent man 573 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,480 and I don't think he was trying to kid or joke around 574 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,480 I think that he really believed it 575 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,480 he told me that he had information 576 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:17,480 he didn't want to be on the show or anything 577 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:21,480 but the Russians have 12 people on the moon 578 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,480 and have had for over a period of three months 579 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:27,480 this I have a question 580 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:32,480 but I know this from other sources 581 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,480 about 300 dental training has asked us 582 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,480 and the 27 of them are women 583 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,480 their schedule calls for sending 584 00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:44,480 two men and two women to the moon 585 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:48,480 and they do not expect to get the first part back 586 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,480 but in other words they're going to send them 587 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,480 they will be there 588 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:56,480 they will be volunteers 589 00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,480 they will not expect to get back well 590 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:02,480 it's not beyond their bounds of reason 591 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,480 to tell you that some patriotic Russian 592 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:07,480 member of the same group of astronauts 593 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,480 may have been willing to sacrifice himself 594 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,480 for this great scientific theory 595 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,480 which they unquestively got 596 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:15,480 by beating us to the punch on this 597 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,480 why is we at the moment talking about the Russians 598 00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,480 why we are the Iranian guys 599 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,480 I will give you the thinking of our scientists 600 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:26,480 but this is true of most of the moon 601 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:30,480 at the top or bottom of the moon 602 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:32,480 where the rays strike at a different angle 603 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,480 the temperature exchange will not be as great 604 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,480 but will be as it is at the poles of the earth 605 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,480 for example of course it wouldn't be that cold 606 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,480 but it would not be boiling hot either 607 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:49,480 we estimate that by our people digging in 608 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,480 or finding themselves, recover of some sort 609 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,480 that they can survive there for quite a while 610 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,480 of course they'd have to take their oxygen with them in their water 611 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,480 I'd just like to say I don't know who you spoke to 612 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,480 with Washington and what intelligence reports he had access to 613 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,480 but that's quite true 614 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:10,480 it's easier to 615 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,480 affect the moon there is the orbit around it 616 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,480 this is like saying it's easier to build an atom bomb 617 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,480 an H-bomb, it's still a monumental task 618 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,480 but as far as sacrificing a man 619 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,480 so they could have someone to develop a film and take pictures 620 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:29,480 that sounds to me to be somewhat wishful thinking 621 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,480 on the part of a man who said it 622 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:34,480 because actually in a condition such as being in orbit around the moon 623 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:38,480 automatic instruments to take pictures 624 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,480 and transmit them back to the earth 625 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:44,480 are of higher competence than any man who was sitting in a space 626 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,480 or orbiting around the moon 627 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:50,480 because the man would be practically worthless 628 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,480 whereas the instruments wouldn't be bothered at all 629 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:57,480 the idea of putting a man into orbit is something of an achievement 630 00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:01,480 in itself but the idea of doing it because the equipment isn't good enough 631 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,480 this sounds rather far-fetched 632 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,480 if you didn't have the appointment to do it 633 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,480 but you had the man who could do it 634 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,480 and you were really rushed to get it done 635 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,480 what would you do? 636 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:19,480 well if you have equipment that is capable of monitoring a flight 637 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:23,480 and you can do it and put it in orbit around the moon 638 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,480 you have the auxiliary equipment that would process 639 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,480 after which would take a picture of the far side of the moon 640 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,480 and to transmit it back to the earth 641 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:34,480 the process, this kind of equipment is not... 642 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:37,480 do they have any though that would put one in orbit around the moon? 643 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:39,480 why not? I've done it before 644 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:42,480 there are two views about Russian scientists and science 645 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:46,480 which is practically hysterical as per prevalent in this country 646 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:50,480 one is that there are a bunch of ignorant engineers 647 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:55,480 who have changed their performances through sheer luck 648 00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:59,480 and they make 10,000 failures and they only let us know about the success 649 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,480 it's a completely idiotic view 650 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,480 but other views that they are supermen who just sit around 651 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,480 and they come out with this fantastic achievement 652 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,480 that we're 10,000 years behind and it's also a ridiculous view 653 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,480 but it has to be just as good and as bad as we are 654 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:14,480 I think you're absolutely right 655 00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:18,480 but I think that's the thinking of these scientists 656 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,480 which is who this man refers 657 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:24,480 and I think that because they felt that the Russians were only mortalling 658 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,480 that they didn't have this gear a short time ago 659 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,480 they probably did not have it at the time that they... 660 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,480 I mean the picture is in the top 661 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:35,480 actually over 70 chapters in this book 662 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,480 and the price of it is 4.95 663 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,480 it's published by Lyle Stewart 664 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:45,480 but there's a black paper jacket on it 665 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:49,480 with sort of a sharp, close-brained printing 666 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,480 and it's a fantastic book 667 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,480 and I know that you want to own a copy 668 00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,480 Frank is kind enough to join us this morning 669 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:57,480 to give us some of his opinions about things 670 00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:01,480 and also to tell us about some of the stories I love it 671 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,480 Frank, I have to come back to the original opening of June 672 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:07,480 I still have no plausible explanations for you 673 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,480 I don't 674 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:12,480 but back then again 675 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:13,480 I said it sincerely 676 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,480 it was impressive to me 677 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,480 I told you, I wasn't sincere 678 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:18,480 but a fan of yours for years 679 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:20,480 you're news reporting to me 680 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:22,480 represents rationality 681 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,480 interpretive powers, etc 682 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,480 Coming back again 683 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,480 from the work of these days 684 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:33,480 the foreign sources which we found around for a bit 685 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:37,480 I started to say a little earlier than I'd asked you a question 686 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:38,480 the audience Frank 687 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:42,480 but I say among many who are in the foreign source of fear 688 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:44,480 I say they're believers 689 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,480 their audience would be... 690 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:48,480 would be... 691 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,480 I am not calling names at the moment 692 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:54,480 I went to some others who underpinned this program 693 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:55,480 and I've done it before 694 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:57,480 but I meant to find the purpose 695 00:46:57,480 --> 00:46:59,480 so I was very uncharacteristic to believe it 696 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,480 I'm asking a question 697 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:06,480 I've been the occult and the mystic 698 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,480 but Frank merely and truly 699 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:10,480 were in many things alike 700 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:12,480 or mentally explained 701 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,480 but Frank in himself 702 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:19,480 have also found explanations for what some people afford 703 00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:23,480 the mystical or occult for science is explaining you 704 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,480 would you please explain to me 705 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:28,480 the ways between those who have 706 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:30,480 what I think might be a 707 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:35,480 valid scientific survey of unidentified science objects 708 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:39,480 but then there are ways for those who believe in mysticism 709 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,480 and occultism which are known out of our own indication 710 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,480 of the use of human-lit-agated answers 711 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:49,480 Well I can't explain what you call the alliance 712 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:50,480 between these people 713 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:51,480 because I'm not a part of it 714 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,480 and I don't know anything about it 715 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,480 I am interested as I said to you a while ago 716 00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:59,480 in the subject of these unidentified flying objects 717 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,480 and I'm calling them by the same name 718 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,480 that the United States government calls them 719 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:05,480 and they've spent tremendous amounts of money 720 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:07,480 investigating them 721 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,480 by government thinks that they're real 722 00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:11,480 Please explain to me 723 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:12,480 I don't mean to be rude 724 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:14,480 but they're asking a different question 725 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:16,480 and they're interested 726 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:17,480 and this goes to your book 727 00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:19,480 which I did wonderful reading again 728 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:22,480 and I read it and enjoyed it 729 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:24,480 but if you offered it 730 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:28,480 if you offered it as just interest 731 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:31,480 but everything you're doing in here seems to imply 732 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,480 look here are amazing things 733 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:35,480 here are things that happen 734 00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:38,480 here is proof of mystical and occult forces 735 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:41,480 now I'm questioning you on this Frank 736 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:44,480 Who are you a bully for this? 737 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,480 Well I am simply reporting 738 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:49,480 I'm not explaining because I can't explain 739 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:52,480 science can't explain the things that are in that book 740 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,480 science has not been able to explain them 741 00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,480 that's why they're all open-ended articles 742 00:48:57,480 --> 00:48:58,480 there's no explanation for them 743 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:00,480 in the light of conventional science 744 00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:03,480 there are great many things that science does not know 745 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:05,480 we know that we've only had organized science 746 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:07,480 for about 75 years 747 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,480 science has made tremendous strides 748 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,480 in that period of time 749 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:17,480 but actually we know that we've hardly scratched the surface 750 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,480 and the things that are being brought out 751 00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:22,480 every few months each year 752 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:25,480 and the thing that I have done in this book 753 00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:28,480 is to print in there 754 00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:30,480 to report in there 755 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:32,480 documented instances 756 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:34,480 for which we have no explanation 757 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:37,480 but for which we have proof that they happen 758 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,480 Now we've discussed the first room 759 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:42,480 which is the mystery of David Lane 760 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:44,480 Yes sir I'd be glad to go there 761 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,480 as far as I can which is as far as science can go 762 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:49,480 David Lane disappeared 763 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:54,480 just to put it in the cap so this is a period of September 23, 1880 764 00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:57,480 David Lane disappeared literally 765 00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,480 at a matter of seconds in the full view 766 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,480 of some members of his family 767 00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:04,480 and some friends that they totally don't know 768 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:06,480 There was a judge 769 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:08,480 I am the judge's brother who was an attorney 770 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,480 here at the time 771 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:12,480 I have some questions 772 00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:14,480 One 773 00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,480 What is the documentary evidence of this particular incident? 774 00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,480 I've got the documentary evidence on this 775 00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:22,480 from the county records 776 00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,480 of Gallupton, Tennessee 777 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:28,480 from the records in the state house 778 00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:30,480 from Tennessee 779 00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:32,480 I've got a few men down there to pull this ground 780 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:35,480 to say if he could have gone into some hole 781 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:38,480 and also from the statements made by this judge 782 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:40,480 and by his brother 783 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:43,480 and by the family of the man who disappeared 784 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,480 Now this man's case was never solved 785 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:47,480 because there was no solution to it 786 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:50,480 he is still listed as missing 787 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:53,480 Frank I believe that the man disappeared of course 788 00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:56,480 and I'm trying to say it literally badly 789 00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:59,480 that by any chance you're fabricating in the book 790 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,480 you are relating stories as a news reporter 791 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,480 that you have checked 792 00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:06,480 that they allegedly happened 793 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:08,480 I'm going a little deeper than that 794 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,480 I believe that somebody told the story 795 00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:13,480 that David Lang, that there was a David Lang 796 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,480 that somebody told the story that he disappeared 797 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,480 and he viewed five people 798 00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:19,480 No question about that 799 00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,480 I'm not going to point anything as to your reporting of it 800 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:23,480 but the question I'm asking 801 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:25,480 what documentary evidence exists of any 802 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,480 that these people didn't do a little dreaming 803 00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:30,480 and tell a story 804 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,480 has there been any evidence at all that this literally happened 805 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,480 If there was the state of Tennessee couldn't find it 806 00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:38,480 at the time it happened 807 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,480 or in the subsequent years 808 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:43,480 Now in your news reporting and your career 809 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:46,480 have you not come across stories Frank 810 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:50,480 on where people relate almost incredible events 811 00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:52,480 but then upon investigation 812 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:55,480 it is found that the relation of these events 813 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:59,480 either occurred somewhere in the deep recesses of their minds 814 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,480 or for their elaboration 815 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:04,480 or a little more practical purpose 816 00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:08,480 where to cover up some true story 817 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,480 they made up some fantastic story 818 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:13,480 Oh yes, yes 819 00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:16,480 Now I'm going to conjecture 820 00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,480 of possibly a silly hypothesis 821 00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:21,480 but the story of David Lang, my own mind 822 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:23,480 is trying to seek an explanation 823 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:25,480 a non-scientific mind 824 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:27,480 but a non-believer in anything 825 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:29,480 and the explanation I came up with 826 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:32,480 was that David Lang got tired of a true wife 827 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:33,480 and disappeared 828 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,480 her pride was hurt 829 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:36,480 terribly hurt 830 00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:37,480 she was left with two children 831 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,480 and in collusion with a couple of friends 832 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:41,480 made up a fantastic story 833 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,480 go disproved it 834 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:45,480 Now there's documentary evidence that she went to 835 00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:47,480 for example, if you have in today's 836 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:49,480 you remember the police department of the city in New York 837 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,480 and said my husband and my full view 838 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:53,480 disappeared do something 839 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,480 but for you are entitled to report that story Frank 840 00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:57,480 but in a world that's 841 00:52:57,480 --> 00:52:59,480 fraction of anybody's imagination 842 00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:01,480 if it doesn't necessarily mean it's the truth 843 00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,480 I think something that Ed Spingon 844 00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:06,480 brought up on the program once 845 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:10,480 which I think is very apropos to this 846 00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:13,480 I said that he would make two statements 847 00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:16,480 one of which would be extremely easy to disprove 848 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:20,480 and the second one would be impossible to disprove 849 00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:23,480 his first statement was that he is a qualified 850 00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,480 programmer of computing machines 851 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:28,480 well obviously he could ask him two or three questions 852 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:29,480 if I know he wasn't 853 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:32,480 but since this is a statement he said it's very easy to disprove 854 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,480 the second statement he said it's impossible to disprove 855 00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:37,480 is that he arrived at the studio tonight 856 00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:40,480 by a flying saucer which landed on the roof 857 00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:41,480 of the building he lives in 858 00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:43,480 and let him out 859 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:45,480 over 1440 Broadway 860 00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:46,480 and he came down here 861 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:48,480 and I disproved that statement 862 00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:50,480 and David Langstapin I said 863 00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:53,480 mid belongs into that lab category 864 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:56,480 of something recorded that could never be disproved 865 00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:58,480 from the front 866 00:53:58,480 --> 00:53:59,480 I'm there about 867 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:02,480 10 or 20,000 cases 868 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:04,480 like the Lang case on record 869 00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:07,480 there are many cases of disappearance of course 870 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,480 like what's about for which there is no answer 871 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:11,480 what 872 00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:15,480 you know the several cases are reported 873 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,480 in the books of the kind of child 874 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,480 child openness or what has to do with it 875 00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:20,480 I'm not sorry 876 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:23,480 the reason I used the David Lang case 877 00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:26,480 was because it was the subject of an intensity 878 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:30,480 and prolonged official probe 879 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:32,480 I did everything possible 880 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,480 to find out what happened to this man 881 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:37,480 and there was no indication whatever 882 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:39,480 that there was any 883 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:44,480 that there was any unpleasant connotations involved in the story 884 00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:47,480 or that there were any indication that any of these witnesses 885 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:50,480 were deluded in front of the truth 886 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:51,480 find out 887 00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:53,480 that that man just was worth a nil 888 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:55,480 here's another point however 889 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:58,480 one of the very last paragraph relating to the story 890 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:03,480 tells of the incident of a stranger's disappearance itself 891 00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:06,480 with the experience that happened in the Lang's two years ago 892 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:08,480 it was about seven months after the vanish 893 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:09,480 and if I may 894 00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:11,480 just the ending of this story 895 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:16,480 David Lang, the children noticed that at the spot where it last been seen 896 00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:20,480 there was a circle of stunted yellow grass and 15 feet in diameter 897 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,480 on that evening as they stood beside the circle 898 00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:27,480 11 year old Sarah called to their father 899 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:29,480 and told her astonishment 900 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:31,480 the youngest man who has heard his voice 901 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,480 calling faintly for help 902 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,480 over and over until it faded away forever 903 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:39,480 Frank, question one 904 00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:41,480 an 11 year old child 905 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:43,480 had an imagination 906 00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:44,480 right? 907 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:45,480 understandable 908 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:48,480 today children commit to our own with stories sometimes 909 00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:49,480 but you just look at them 910 00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:51,480 with their imaginations 911 00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:53,480 with their indisputable imaginations 912 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:54,480 it's true 913 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:57,480 where is this document that a child told somebody? 914 00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:00,480 but a mother gave the state of Tennessee a sworn statement on that 915 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,480 and she heard the same thing 916 00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:03,480 even before that 917 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:06,480 is an alienist every man and Mrs. Lang? 918 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:08,480 I don't know that there were any 919 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:09,480 similar things 920 00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:12,480 I think that this is a great tragedy 921 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:16,480 and many times when children make statements 922 00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:18,480 that sound wild or fantastic 923 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:20,480 and they are laughed at and ignored 924 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,480 and this is a very tragic thing 925 00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:25,480 because children have seen many things 926 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:28,480 that seemed absolutely impossible 927 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:30,480 I know 928 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:33,480 sometimes I'm listening to you 929 00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:37,480 and your comment was not a comment 930 00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:39,480 the comment that I was saying 931 00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:41,480 your comment was a personal comment 932 00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:43,480 and unnecessary 933 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:48,480 and if you like your pipe 934 00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:51,480 so that it can get the smoke coming properly 935 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,480 you might be able to listen to what I'm saying 936 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:56,480 instead of throwing it off into a personal tangent 937 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:58,480 and if you heard what I said 938 00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:00,480 I don't know if you heard what you said 939 00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:02,480 but if you comment on what I said 940 00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:04,480 not on the condition of my mind 941 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:06,480 which you can't do anything about 942 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:07,480 what you said Ellery 943 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:09,480 or what I thought you said 944 00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:12,480 was that it's a shame that we ignore 945 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:16,480 some of the stories of our children 946 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:21,480 and cause we might find a lot of truth in these stories 947 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:23,480 I saw a ghost 948 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:25,480 I don't want to go to sleep 949 00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:27,480 there was a ghost in the room last night 950 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:28,480 don't ignore this child 951 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:30,480 maybe there was a ghost Ellery 952 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:31,480 but that's the point 953 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:32,480 that I'm not going to say 954 00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:34,480 that I'm not going to say 955 00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:36,480 that I'm not going to say that 956 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:38,480 that's why I'm calling it because it's children's statement 957 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,480 the point of my statement is 958 00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:41,480 quite something else again 959 00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:43,480 the point of my statement is that 960 00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:45,480 there have been many observations made 961 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:47,480 by children or adults 962 00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:48,480 adults 963 00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:50,480 which didn't happen to Jai 964 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:53,480 with the emotions of the other individuals 965 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:55,480 and around us surrounding them 966 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,480 and that simple attitude of dismissing a thing 967 00:57:58,480 --> 00:57:59,480 while a child said this 968 00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:00,480 a child reported this 969 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:02,480 this is a very vicious thing 970 00:58:02,480 --> 00:58:04,480 and a very destructive thing 971 00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:06,480 and I say that in essence 972 00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:09,480 the idea of having a lack of respect for a child 973 00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:12,480 is an exciting, very degrading thing 974 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:14,480 to the person who has that lack of respect 975 00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:15,480 Ellery 976 00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:18,480 I'm so waiting to have a lack of respect 977 00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:20,480 I have an affection for children 978 00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:21,480 I love them 979 00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:23,480 there is no question about that 980 00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:25,480 but please don't dramatize 981 00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:26,480 and put up with this 982 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,480 so many observations 983 00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:30,480 that it is malicious 984 00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:32,480 that it is terrible 985 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:34,480 and one lacks respect for a child 986 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:37,480 when a child comes in with a childish story 987 00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:39,480 and while not hurting a child 988 00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:41,480 you're nothing distrustful 989 00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:43,480 and you're nothing cruel 990 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,480 and you don't accept 991 00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:47,480 an imaginative story of a child 992 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:48,480 Ellery 993 00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:50,480 please, you're over dramatizing 994 00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:52,480 I'm not over dramatizing anything 995 00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:54,480 and it's simply the old story 996 00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:56,480 about the peasants who would report to the 997 00:58:56,480 --> 00:58:58,480 Lord of the Man of the Rock 998 00:58:58,480 --> 00:58:59,480 fell out of the sky 999 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:01,480 and the Rock was made of metal 1000 00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:03,480 and they were laughed at because they were ignorant peasants 1001 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:06,480 this has been told over and over and over again 1002 00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:08,480 and here the same thing happens with children 1003 00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:11,480 children see things that are actually not ever to follow 1004 00:59:11,480 --> 00:59:12,480 in what you say 1005 00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:15,480 and cause some children may have reported 1006 00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:17,480 certain stories which adults disbelieve 1007 00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:19,480 and later was checked to find out 1008 00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:20,480 that it was true 1009 00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:22,480 this does not mean that we should create 1010 00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:24,480 into everything that children say 1011 00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:27,480 and I exaggerated love and respect for children 1012 00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:28,480 or something like that 1013 00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:30,480 they're very complete human beings 1014 00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:32,480 I mean why you speak for yourself 1015 00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:33,480 I'm not a child 1016 00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:35,480 they're the one who's speaking for you 1017 00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:37,480 I would ask Frank 1018 00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:39,480 outside of the Frank 1019 00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:41,480 the long story 1020 00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:44,480 of how the story in the book about our woman 1021 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:46,480 whose image appeared 1022 00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:49,480 sort of as a photographic image on the window 1023 00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:50,480 of a building 1024 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:52,480 it seems it happened quite a few times 1025 00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:54,480 so could you give us a rundown on that story 1026 00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:56,480 I think I have several of them in the book 1027 00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:58,480 I happen to know about one of them 1028 00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:01,480 very well because it happened in the northern Indiana 1029 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:03,480 which comes from my old hometown 1030 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:04,480 down on the river 1031 01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:06,480 on the Ohio River right across from Louisville 1032 01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:08,480 this lady's name was Sharth 1033 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:11,480 and hundreds and hundreds of people saw this thing 1034 01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:13,480 Sharthday after she died 1035 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:16,480 her picture appeared in the glass 1036 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:18,480 on the window of her home 1037 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:20,480 and it was there 1038 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:23,480 until sometime after her son arrived 1039 01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:26,480 at a considerable time after her funeral actually 1040 01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:30,480 and when the boy, the son, got there 1041 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:33,480 of course he was puzzled by this 1042 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:35,480 like a lot of others 1043 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:37,480 and he rubbed his handkerchief over the thing 1044 01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:40,480 and the picture faded out 1045 01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:42,480 whether it faded out instantly or not 1046 01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:44,480 I don't know but I mean after he did this 1047 01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:46,480 within a very short time after the picture 1048 01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:47,480 had faded and was gone 1049 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:50,480 but there were quite a few cases of this type 1050 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:52,480 in fact there was one right down in Washington DC 1051 01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:55,480 in the book where a picture of a man 1052 01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:57,480 and an older new lady
